10 Reasons To Get It On....



Do the nasty. Knock boots. Bump uglies. Bump 'n Grind. Shag. Schtupp. Boff. Hump. Boink. You get the picture right?

For every silly nickname we use for sex, there's a totally legit reason why you should be having more of it.

From boosting your immune system to releasing aggression, here are the many ways it pays to play dirty.

1. Shag your guy's ticker into shape. According to a study at Queens University in Belfast, men who have sex three or more times a week can cut their risk of heart attack in half.


2. According to that same study, regular romps will also halve your man's chances of suffering a stroke.


3. One 30-minute roll in the hay burns about 200 calories.


4. Curb irritability.


5. Kick colds to the curb. Researchers at Wilkes University in Pennsylvania found that having sex once or twice a week boosts the immune system by 30 percent.


6. "An active sex life slows the aging process."


7. Get more z's. A little sensual massage followed by some dancing in the sheets releases sleep-inducing endorphins.


8. Yes, tonight, honey--I have a headache. Recent studies have shown that doing the horizontal hustle can bring temporary headache relief.


9. Strengthen your core -- it's like Pilates without the annoyingly perfect instructor.


10. Come on, do you really need a reason?

I am with Danielle - sleep is way better. But I don't think that applies too all people - just mommies with babies who won't sleep through the night.
